MOTASHIM Al Razi - PeerSpot reviewer
CISO at One Bank Limited
It is a stable solution, but they should make the user interface easier to understand
The solution's initial setup takes work. We have to organize multiple paths and many features. The deployment process takes less than a week. But it takes a month to complete if we want to make the solution smarter by integrating it with various devices. I rate the process as a six out of ten.
GANESAN K - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Technical Engineer at Safezone Secure Solutions Private Limited
Helps identify vulnerabilities, recover from attacks swiftly, and unify security management from a single console
Singularity Platform has an easy-to-use console. When it comes to customization, it has some options, but I wouldn't say it is very customizable. If you are asking if this is fully customizable, I would say it is partially customizable, not fully customizable. In some places, I can understand from a security background that they have kept those features considering security. However, it lacks customization and could enable much more than that. Even though Singularity Platform has multiple integrations with multiple solutions, it still needs more because competitive vendors such as CrowdStrike and Trend Micro provide more integrations than SentinelOne. The first thing I would say about the negative side of Singularity Platform is that it lacks some customization and integrations compared to competitors. We can integrate Fortinet and Palo Alto, which are big players, but there are many other small companies. Even Zoho is a significant player in our market, but there are no integrations for Zoho.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product's initial setup phase was not at all difficult."
"NetWitness Platform offers flexibility for deployment and robust integration capabilities."
"Their technical support responds quickly and are knowledgable."
"The product has a user-friendly interface and a valuable feature for threat intelligence integration."
"It gives the ability to investigate into network traffic in the Net and the organization what we couldn't do before."
"The most valuable features are the packet decoder, log decoder, and concentrator."
"It's fully scalable. There is no limit. Of course, the license limits per day the number of terabytes. In my opinion, it's very flexible."
"NetWitness Platform is valuable for creating rules that the solution must detect."
"During the time of attacks, if there is any data loss, we were able to easily roll back those attacks and retrieve that data for the client with a single click."
"Singularity Platform's real-time personalization feature has helped our customer experience strategies by allowing us to have different workspaces where we have custom views, and depending on the use case because we have many products that use Singularity Platform, they interact with the UI in different ways, producing different elements and giving us tailored views for different products."
"Singularity Platform allows us to have one single view of potential threats and the health of our environment, helping us optimize operational efficiency."
 

Cons

"More customizability is required, which is something that they need to improve on."
"Nowadays, their support is a little subpar compared to other solutions. I rate RSA support six out of 10."
"The multi-tenant capabilities are lagging compared to IBM QRadar."
"Lots of competing products have vulnerability protection built into their products, and this solution would be improved by including that support."
"We have encountered issues with unresolved crashes."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"The user interface is a little bit difficult for new users and it needs to be improved."
"The solution should have more integration capabilities with different platforms."
"The first thing I would say about the negative side of Singularity Platform is that it lacks some customization and integrations compared to competitors."
"The dashboards can be improved, and their dashboarding functionality needs to be better. The way the dashboards look is not really impactful or meaningful."
"Sometimes, these customized solutions our developers develop also get flagged in real time, and the processes get stopped and are blocked, and we have to whitelist the processes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is cheap."
"In comparison to other SIEM solutions such as Splunk, NetWitness is less costly."
"Many clients are not able to purchase the packet capability because there is a huge amount of data, and the cost depends on the number of EPS (Events per second), as well as the number of gigabytes of data per day."
"It’s cheaper to run virtual machines in a VMware environment."
"The licenses are good but the cost is very expensive."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets do not have a subscription model, it's a one-time purchase. There is only a perpetual license."
"We have yearly licensing costs. The license fee can be based on the volume of EPS. Some organizations may have, as a gentlemanly gesture, 10,000 EPS and get a 3,000 EPS license but actually use 5,000 EPS."
"The tool is very expensive, so I rate the pricing a ten out of ten. The solution has an annual subscription."
